New Media

Build the city of your dreams. Cities: Skylines is the most realistic and detailed city builder ever created. Build a bustling metropolis and lead your city in whatever way you see fit. Using your imagination you can create the city of your dream. Build the city of your dreams, and keep it afloat by taxing your people. Balance essential requirements such as economy and healthcare. Create busy city districts and quite suburbs. You decide the laws of your city. Want to ban pets? Sure. Want to decide how the education system works? By all means, go ahead. You decide whether or not you want a giant industrial city, or a quaint seaside town. you decide how you want your people to live.  I tried to build several cities and only on my fourth attempt I created the city of my dream. There are modern districts as well as farms. It doesn't have traffic problems, everyone is happy: from children to adults and I accumulated enough money. Please see attached pictures of my city.

    Social Media has revolutionized the way we consume news, communicate with friends, and interact with brands. Social media has become a part of our daily life.  Social networks have become accessible by almost all out digital devices including computers, mobile phones, tablet devices, and wearable technology such as Google glasses and the Apple watch.       Technologies are fast changing, so we should always be one step in front of them. That's why new media fosters creativity. When you make videos on YouTube or write in your blog, you want to see changes from year to year. You make the best you can to "grow" and become better in new media. As I read in the paper  YouTube Traffic Characterization: A View From the Edge : " With the rise of Web 2.0 technologies on the Web, there is a need to understand their workload patterns, in order to plan, design, and build more efficient delivery infrastructures".     Also, media helps you to explore new ideas and in

Virtual Reality makes it possible to experience anything, anywhere, anytime. It can convince the human brain that it is somewhere it is really not.Virtual reality isn't just for gaming - it's a technology that can make a real difference to our collective futures. Virtual Worlds have a great importance for training and education in fields like medicine, engineering, and the sciences. Medicine is one of the biggest beneficiaries with the development of surgery simulation. This is often used as a training aid and enables the surgeon to perform an operation on a virtual patient. It's better and safer for surgeons in training to perfect their techniques on things other than real humans. The article Avatar II: The Hospital tells us that online simulations are teaching nurses to make the right and quick decisions in emergencies. Another popular use of virtual reality is aviation: a three dimensional aircraft can be designed which allows the designer to test their prototype with

    A Tweeter discussion is similar to a BlackBoard Discussion. Discussion boards are used to create a “thread” or “topic” where participants in the board can post replies or start threads on new topics. You use text to state your point of view and to share your thoughts with classmates. When students participate in an online discussion forum they are not talking to a person with a face but rather a screen, in some cases typing words on a keyboard beneath or next to words that someone else has typed. It is a fast and convenient way to communicate with each other. It guarantees that all students are able to participate. This makes the discussion more democratic. You can share your opinion with confidence and everyone will see it.       In-class discussion is different. In addition to directing the message, you have a visual experience: sound of voice (volume, sonority, roughness, inflection), posture, dress, inflection, tempo, feeling, style. Online you are looking at a screen (phone,

          I believe that social media shall be to find new people or people with whom you have lost connection with and social media is not to be a substitute of one to one talking with people whom you know and can easily meet. It shall rather be for finding great personalities that we can’t meet or find new people. Facebook Facebook is the biggest social media site around, with more than two billion people using it every month. It is available in 140 languages. Facebook allows you to post on wall, create Fan Pages, Groups, etc. It include more features like Chat, Likes, Photos, Videos, Text, Polls, Links, Status, Pokes, Gifts, Games, Messaging, Classified section, upload and download options for photos. In Facebook you can write as much as you want.  Twitter Twitter is a social media site for news, entertainment, sports, politics, and more. What makes Twitter different from most other social media sites is that it has a strong emphasis on real-time information — things tha

    Social media technologies have changed the lives of many people. Just look at Facebook or Twitter popularity and you will realize that the social networking connects  human consciousness.  You can share ideas and knowledge in words, images and with the virtual face to face technologies.  Knowledge transfer is so quick. It is transforming humanity deeply at the personal and business levels.      Social networks can add value to almost any business. C onsumer goods companies could increase their margins using social technologies through goods that better meet customers needs and improve the productivity of knowledge workers. As I read in the article by Miller: " Twitter is also a tool for businesses to reach customers and monitor what their customers are saying about them".   With nearly half of the world’s population using social media platforms, they’re a natural place to reach new and highly targeted potential customers.     Blog Social networks have become hubs that
